Starting with Eliza Kent Kane in 1853 and ending with Robert Peary in 1909, "Harnessed to the Pole" is a unique study of the nineteenth-century sledge dogs that led American explorers to the North Pole. Almost totally ignored in their exploits, these dogs made possible what never could have occurred otherwise: an American claim on the Pole. Even if we do not know their names, we know that they pulled with all their hearts, even though they were fed little, driven hard, and sometimes left to die along the trail. Often referred to as little camels of the north, these courageous partners provided transportation of people and freight through extremely difficult conditions, protected against wolves and polar bears, helped in the hunt, found their way through storms, and provided warmth in extreme cold, meat in times of starvation, and even skins for clothes. Most importantly, they provided companionship in a hostile world poised on the edge of death and madness. Here is the untold story of these extraordinary dogs, truly man's best but least known friend in the race to reach the Pole."

"My Attainment of the Pole" is a controversial account written by Frederick A. Cook, claiming to be the first person to reach the North Pole. Published in 1911, Cook details his alleged journey, providing descriptions of the harsh Arctic conditions, challenges faced, and the ultimate triumph of reaching the pole. However, Cook's claim faced skepticism and scrutiny from other explorers and scholars of the time, most notably Robert E. Peary, who also asserted to have reached the North Pole. The conflicting narratives and lack of concrete evidence have led to a historical debate over the legitimacy of Cook's achievement. Despite the controversy surrounding Cook's claim, "My Attainment of the Pole" remains an intriguing document, offering readers insight into the intense competition and disputes that characterized the race to the North Pole during the early 20th century.

SALT LICK, Vol. I, Celebrate Life, by Dr. Robert A. (Sunny) Brock, was written to four teenage grandsons, teaching moral chastity and ethical respect and responsibility toward the opposite sex. Also, written to teach Christian virtues in a Mark Twain style, life-situation novel. Volume One of this 1835 Historical Christian Romantic Comedy involves eight ORILEY cousins on a whimsical-lark. The cousin clan help protagonists ALI ORILEY and THOMAS ORILEY celebrate life as the cousins accompany Ali in her quest to visit all five of her paternal uncles families. All these first-cousins have never met each other nor their O'Riley kin. The misadventure begins with Alis mothers conniving plan to marry Ali off to the mothers nephew, who will soon graduate West Point, looking for wedding bells on Christmas visit. Ali, a blithe, headstrong, Irish princess, balks at the proposition of being married at age twenty. With the aid of her wanderlust father, Ali covertly plans visiting each of his brothers families prior to nuptials. The object of using many personalities among the Irish cousin-clan is to present every personality, and combination-personality, on the DISC Personality Scale. This Pandora's box of kinfolk shows how each reacts differently in every situation. Each must interact with his peers, both positively and negatively and learn to tolerate and accept one another at face value. Each must contribute both leadership and servant qualities to the solution of life problems in his own unique way. First on Alis list, is the family of UNCLE WES ORILEY, married to the cosmopolitan daughterof a French ambassador. TRUDY ORILEY, raised among highbrow European culture, had brought unique order to the pastoral community of Glasgow, Kentucky. This family is both a little-bit country-bumpkin and a little-bit cultured, making for a comical balance of magical homelife. Since her own childhood had been puritanical and stoic law and order, Ali falls in love with Uncle Wes laid-back family. Prior to leaving on the next leg of her journey, showing off her French cooking skills, learned the prior summer at Columbia University cooking school, Ali feeds the family breakfast. A twisted accident causes her to feed them the famous Flathead Biscuits from Hades, which sets the pace for strange-enough-to-be-true comedy the rest of the book. For protection and assistance, Wess oldest son, THOMAS ORILEY, is appointed to accompany Ali on the rest of her adventure. These two opposite personalities are least likely to strike up a lasting relationship. However, they must learn to compliment each other in order to make the adventure a rewarding experience. On the trail to Louisiana, Davy Crockett crosses their path. Prospects of the 1835 massacre at the Alamo are presented. Uncle RUFUS ORILEYs family habitat in the Gulf Coast swamps of Low Down, Louisiana, introduces snakes, alligators and the plight of the American Indian during Andrew Jacksons presidency. Rufus second oldest son, ELIJAH, and Thomas go through the rites-of-passage together, slaying the swamp-dragon. Rufus older daughter, MAID MARION, and Ali pass through the rites-of-passage, performing one of the oldest female rites known to mankind. Serious life-situations and decisions are presented and dealt with as Rufus oldest son, ZAK, saves Thomas and Elijah from the Caddo Indians. Several sequences clearly illustrate the Christian message as clan members make decisions to rescue each other. Uncle Rufus, preacher, trapper, intellectual, is invited to preach about Satan at snake-handler cult rituals, presenting swamp dwellers culture. A cruel practical joke and comical mix-up sets the stage for Thomas and Elijah to get deserved vengence against WINSTON CHANLIN. A strange turn
